Barry Conlon rescued a point for promotion-chasing Bradford as they were held at home by struggling Accrington.

Stanley took the lead when James Ryan drilled a low free-kick through the wall after Chris Turner had been fouled by City midfielder Paul McLaren.

Visiting keeper Kenny Arthur then pulled off a fine save to deny Nicky Law before Conlon scored the equaliser.

Law scampered down the right and provided the cross for the City striker to volley in from close range.
